    Can I drop in engine/tranny together?

    I have always slid the tranny in under a jacked-up car, then dropped the engine in and hired elves to crawl under and bolt things up. Can I bolt up the tranny to the engine and install from the top? Car is a 69 Dart.

    Factory wheel colors on 69 Dart

    I am trying to recall if I have ever seen the factory steel wheels painted the body color on a-bodies, 69 Darts in particular. I have seen white wheels on a white car, and black on everything else, but can't recall seeing any other colors. I know they did it on E and B bodies.

    Disc brakes on all Formula S cars?

    I have a 68 383 Formula S Barracuda. It has front drum brakes (and a front sway bar). I was under the impression that all Formula S cars came from the factory with front discs as standard equipment. But it looks like mine have never been tampered with. Then I heard of another Formula S, 68 that...

    68 Formula S rocker moulding pieces

    I have a 68 Formula S. Supposedly, 68 was the only year they offered a two-piece rocker molding setup. This consisted of a chrome-and-black-painted pot metal piece about 4" x 16", and a long stainless steel spear that butts into it. My car originally came with these, but they are long gone. I...

    I have a 68 Barracuda Formula S that, according to the tag, originally had hood-mounted turn signals. My hood must not be original, because I don't see any points where the hood was drilled for them. Does anyone have any specifications where the holes were drilled?
